Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Speaker, ordinarily when time is sought we allow it. However, today’s discussion is on Education — the Committee Stage debate on the Heads of the Ministry of Education, Higher Education and Vocational Education. I asked about our country’s early childhood development, namely the preschool sector. Why is the Hon. Minister of Education unable to answer on preschool education today?
